Abstract
Yeast grown on n-paraffin, which will be called just the yeast hereafter, has specific flavor common to yeast. Although many preliminary trials just tasting the meat of broiler and hen fed a diet containing high level of the yeast and egg laid by hens fed the diet revealed no detectable change in flavor of the meat and egg, the flavor specific to the yeast in feed is suspected to be transferred to the meat and egg, making these products unfavorable for food. Accordingly, sensory test based on more reliable experimental design was carried out to find whether the meat and egg of hens fed the yeast has any specific and detectable flavor.Keywords
